Crime Victims Services - Domestic Violence
Over 1.8 million American women are beaten by their partners, although only 1 out of 10 beatings are ever reported.
Approximately 1 out of every 25 elderly persons is victimized annually.
Domestic violence is the leading cause of injury to women between the ages of 15 and 44.
